Healthcare financial managers can control costs by using multiple-regression analysis to set standard pay rates. This method involves calculating job characteristic weights (betas) and ranking job factors (X values) to determine salaries.

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Financial Management
  • Econometrics
  • Human Resources

Background:

  • Controlling healthcare costs is a significant challenge for financial managers.
  • Accurate and standardized pay rates are essential for effective cost management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a methodology for healthcare financial managers to establish standard pay rates.
  • To enable better cost control through the application of multiple-regression analysis.

Main Methods:

  • Calculate market-determined weights (betas) for job characteristics.
  • Rank job characteristics (X values) based on job descriptions and interviews.
  • Utilize a salary formula incorporating betas and X values to derive standard hourly rates.
